Responses to globalization of telecommunications

Telecommunications Policy, 1992, vol. 16, issue 9, 717-720

Abstract: This article describes the strategies adopted by Canada to increase the competitiveness of its telecommunication sector in the international marketplace. The country's general regulatory culture has traditionally been open and informal, and this is a tradition that the Canadian Radio- television and Telecommunications Commission has striven to uphold. Competition in the long- distance voice market has recently been sanctioned, and the privatization of Teleglobe in 1987 has enhanced its ability to meet the challenge of competition in the international market, especially from the USA.
